In 1978 she and Denis got married in Newcastle-Upon-Tyne, UK.
Her early published writings included poetry and a regular column in the Bank Notes, a newsmagazine of the Asian Development Bank, Manila, Philippines, in the 1970's. In 1988, living in the close-knit famed twin-city of Western Australia's Kalgoorlie-Boulder inspired her and Denis to publish the Goldfields Golden Glow, a colourful cultural book-magazine. Painting in oil and watercolour wound up her activities in Kalgoorlie-Boulder before moving in 2000 to Western Australia's capital city of Perth. In Perth, she completed her novel "My Australian Prince" in mid-2007 with passion and dedication.
Together, her following background merged with her love for creative writing in the English language - her high school journalism studies; title of Associate in Commercial Science from the Philippine College of Commerce (now a university); secretarial skills in the international environment; Alliance Française certificates, Manila (although her French language progress was disrupted by various reasons); travels with Denis around England, Scotland, France, USA, Philippines, Australia, Italy, and Finland; Australian tertiary undergraduate studies; the publishing experience; and Kalgoorlie College art certificates.
